"Whoosh."

Lu Changsheng appeared in front of the Lord of the Chen Family.

"Lord Chen."

Lu Changsheng spoke faintly.

"Ah?"

"Upper Immortal Lu, may I ask what your command is?"

Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, the Lord of the Chen Family's gaze slightly froze, and he immediately greeted him respectfully.

Lu Changsheng nodded and said, "I heard the Chen Family was once a True Immortal family. Brother Lu has some confusion regarding cultivation and wishes to borrow the Chen Family's True Immortal cultivation technique for a look."

At Lu Changsheng's words, the Lord of the Chen Family understood immediately.

Although Lu Changsheng said "borrow," since he asked, how could the Chen Family refuse?

The Lord of the Chen Family gritted his teeth and said, "My Chen Family's ancestors gave birth to a True Immortal. You may freely view the cultivation technique, but I hope Upper Immortal Lu will not pass it on."

This was the last bit of "stubbornness" from the Lord of the Chen Family.

As long as it's not passed on, it wouldn't be much loss to the Chen Family.

"Alright."

Lu Changsheng agreed with a nod.

Just a cultivation technique, that's all.

He was merely referencing it and not necessarily cultivating it.

Should he choose to pass it on in the future, Lu Changsheng could "create" numerous cultivation techniques.

Thus, Lu Changsheng quietly waited.

Soon, the Lord of the Chen Family brought a booklet of the cultivation technique.

Lu Changsheng immediately began examining it within the Chen Family.

This cultivation technique was called Nine Heavens Earth Immortal Technique.

The more Lu Changsheng read, the more amazed he became.

This Immortal technique, how should it be put, lacked those mysterious descriptions.

Contrarily, it described things very plainly and clearly.

Moreover, this Immortal technique directly pointed to Heavenly Immortal!

However, this Immortal technique was unachievable in cultivation.

Not entirely unachievable, but extremely demanding to cultivate.

This Immortal technique requires a kind of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, known as Nine Heavens Earth.

It's rumored that Nine Heavens Earth contains the creation of heaven and earth, an extremely precious treasure.

This Immortal technique integrates Nine Heavens Earth into the body, fusing it with blood and flesh.

Through continual integration of Nine Heavens Earth, merging repeatedly with blood and flesh, ultimately to temper the blood and flesh until they gain the Immortal attribute.

Finally, the body becomes completely immortal.

At that point, one becomes a Heavenly Immortal.

Indeed, achieving Heavenly Immortal is just that plain and unembellished.

But the key is, Nine Heavens Earth is gone.

Let alone True Immortal.

Even Heavenly Immortals cannot find Nine Heavens Earth.

It's almost considered extinct.

The Chen Family's ancestor once obtained Nine Heavens Earth.

Then he began cultivating ecstatically.

But after cultivating for a while, he could no longer find more Nine Heavens Earth.

Although this technique cannot be cultivated, it gave Lu Changsheng a thought.

Or rather, it provided some guidance to Lu Changsheng.

For instance, now Lu Changsheng finally understands why Heavenly Immortals have immortal bodies.

The reason is simple.

Their bodies have developed the Immortal attribute.

From understanding the Nine Heavens Earth Immortal Technique, Lu Changsheng knows that through continual tempering of the body, in various ways, you can temper it to the extreme.

Thus, there's a chance for the body to develop an Immortal attribute.

Once the Immortal attribute exists.

The "physical decline" in the Five Decays of Heaven and Man disappears.

At that point, one becomes a Heavenly Immortal.

Lu Changsheng figured out the principle, so it's manageable now.

After all, tempering the body doesn't solely rely on Nine Heavens Earth.

There are other methods available.

Of course, tempering is one aspect, but whether or not you can develop the Immortal attribute is another.

A mature cultivation technique's advantage lies in methodical progression, avoiding detours.

If one were to create their own.

For example, if Lu Changsheng creates an Immortal technique, continually tempering the body.

Who knows if the Immortal attribute will ever appear?

"Snap."

Lu Changsheng closed the Nine Heavens Earth Immortal Technique.

He returned the technique to the Lord of the Chen Family.

"Lord Chen, thank you."

Once finished, Lu Changsheng stood up.

"Farewell to the Upper Immortal!"

Lu Changsheng transformed into a stream of light and departed the Chen Family.

Now, Lu Changsheng can almost have his way with the Chen Family.

And the Chen Family does not dare utter a single "no."

But fortunately, Lu Changsheng still follows the rules.

Hence, the Chen Family breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Changsheng returned to the Qi Family and saw a familiar person.

"Brother Lu."

The person greeted him proactively.

Lu Changsheng's eyes slightly narrowed, and he slowly spoke, "Water Swamp Immortal, what brings you here, Brother Shui?"

It turned out this figure was none other than the Water Swamp Immortal that Lu Changsheng saw at the City Lord Mansion.

Back then, Lu Changsheng went to the City Lord Mansion to inquire about joining, and it was the Water Swamp Immortal who answered.

Water Swamp Immortal marvels slightly.

He naturally remembered Lu Changsheng.

At that time, Lu Changsheng inquired about joining the City Lord Mansion, but later chose to leave due to a desire for freedom from constraint.

Water Swamp Immortal knew that generally under such circumstances, the Strongest Ancestor Realm struggles to find immortal veins.

Even if on the verge of breakthrough, it's of no use.

Ultimately, one must join the City Lord Mansion, leveraging its immortal vein to breakthrough.

But he never imagined Lu Changsheng actually went to the Blood Swamp Mountain Range.

A place that not even True Immortals want to enter.

An Ancestor Realm entering faces nine deaths to one life.

Unexpectedly, Lu Changsheng survived and returned.

He even successfully advanced to the True Immortal Realm.

A True Immortal Realm achieved within the Blood Swamp Mountain Range.

Water Swamp Immortal understands how significant Lu Changsheng's status is.

Therefore, the City Lord issued a special order to have Water Swamp Immortal seek Lu Changsheng and recruit him.

Thinking of this, Water Swamp Immortal changed his usual indifferent demeanor, revealing a smile: "Congratulations, Brother Lu, on becoming a True Immortal."

"I've come on behalf of the City Lord Mansion, hoping to invite Brother Lu to join us."

Lu Changsheng remained calm.
